Fantastic chevauchie

September and all schools Lovingprevious film by Jeff Nichols et al. Cyclists. More movies without change: a tour of human relationships between people on the margin or in a male rapper, society, etc.Americanculture and American culture.

Nous sommes dans les années 60. Young Danny Lyon, photographer and cinema of America, and the motard lui-même à l’époque, an immersion in the life of the motard club of the American Midwest, le Chicago Outlawsdans l’optique, dit-il, de Dresser une Image Positive (“ illustrious “) du motard americain et de son “way of life ” Il en a sorti un livre, Cyclists, based on the film of the same name. It was a labor of love with Jeff Nichols’ suspension during the process.

Johnny (Tom Hardy, Flawless) is the founder of a club called the Vandals in the film. Routier, Johnny – père de famille, in fact he is calm. Il raconte que l’idee du Club a Germe en regarding TV Wild (l’Equipée sauvage) Laszlo Benedek’s film with Marlon Brando is truly the highest grade of motorcycle films. Un veritable hommage, puisqu’on en voit un extrait dans Cyclistsand what Jeff Nichols calls his meme heroes prenomes that exist in l’Equipée sauvage. According to the authors, the film flirts with nostalgia, voire n’apporte rien de nouveau, et pourtant le cinéaste nous livre ici un Film vraiment Singulier et très beau, in a different way, but more consistently and with difficulty.

In fact, these bikers, without Nichols and without apology, are romantic romantics in their debuts, do not see an ideal life, a fleeting existence in the ryen, le plus souvent dans le cadre de pique-niques à la bière and motorcycle ballads. La vie est alors insouciante, belle; Independence and freedom are the main words. This carelessness laisse le temps au cinéaste de mettre plutôt in anticipation of relationships between men. “Des plus anodes”, “Machine is a film not for the last humor”, “Auk plus serials”. “American cinema” is an idea based on male complexes in relationships, voire toxics. Les grandes scènes de chevauchée, Magnifiques par ailleurs, sont moins là pour faire vroum-vroum que pour montre la dynamice d’un groupe, la puissance d’un sense d’appartenance, d’identification, de reperes. When petit à petit, The Club turns into a gang of snacks, a suite for new members bien plus jeunes, Jeff Nichols’s encore is not given free scenes of violence, but most is written in the context of the son, sans jamais les justifier: famille pauvre, violent, or encore retour turatique du Vietnam.

The narrative centers on three people. Benny, the character played at the center by Austin Butler. Silent (the actor does not practice lines of dialogue, but rather develops an exciting game in relationships and various poses, bien plus interessant que dans Elvis selon nous), il est très dépendant du club, lettéralement prêt à mourir pour lui, comme dans la scène d’oververture, tout en étant libre. He gave up the porter in the poem “Katie’s Love” (Jodie Comer, “Excellent Excellence”) and he became very fast, or voluntarily Johnny moved to the club in which he played plus and plus. In the scene with some of the faithful from Danny Lyon’s book, this attitude towards the three is the most fictional: où Benny se fait tirailler par l’une qui veut sa survie en voulant l’éloigner d’un club Dangerous, et par l’ autre that offers vie pleine de risques (the chef of the club is challenged by the amount in coups de poing or de couteau), et où Benny-louis-meme is a partnership between the son of desire for freedom and the son of love in the spirit of Katie and Johnny, the obvious father figure. This is communication in three genres, in particular, in the “Arian film” genre.

The form of choice (fidèle au livre de Lyon) is the basis of Cathy’s interview, narrated by the everyday life of the vandals played by Danny Lyon (Mike Feist), suivis des scènes ad hoc en flashbacks, and a phrase that smooths over this reminder of le recit. Globality, aesthetics Cyclists very smart. Adam Stone, Jeff Nichols’s chef, shoots cinema within the cinema on Kodak film, and this return is of high quality: the image of the present plus the naturalist who selects selected éclairages sont le plus souvent simplissimes, thanks to this sense of immersion of the viewer in the world of ces bikers.

Jeff Nichols is not the equivalent of a setter for creating a special, immersive atmosphere in the pleasant sense of the word. Film after film, il tisse une œuvre capitale, et nous livre ici un très beau de motards que que ne aucun de motards. And there are so many things!
